Using nearly a million dollars from a state grant, the University of Colorado is studying how cannabis use affects drivers.
“Right now law enforcement doesn’t have a lot of objective tools looking at objective measures or biological measures that they can use at roadside,” researcher Ashley Brooks-Russell told 9news. “What’s commonly used or kind of the first line of defense is the standard field sobriety test. That’s not really well-suited for cannabis, so we’re looking to see if these tools might provide some better tools for law enforcement to use roadside.”
